During a group date when the male contestants were encouraged to share hardships from their past relationships, Thurston recounted the details of her assault, which took place about ten years ago at a New Year’s Eve party.

Thurston has been hailed as one of the most sex-positive Bachelorettes since her first appearance in the franchise as a contestant on Matt James’s season of The Bachelor, when she greeted him out of the limo with a vibrator. Throughout her time on the show, Thurston has been known to talk openly and positively about sex, but she said in Monday night’s episode of The Bachelorette that it had taken her a long time to get to that point.
